    24I have digged and drunk strange waters, and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the rivers of besieged places.

    25Hast thou not heard long ago how I have done it, and of ancient times that I have formed it? now have I brought it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay waste fenced cities into ruinous heaps.

    26Therefore their inhabitants were of small power, they were dismayed and confounded; they were as the grass of the field, and as the green herb, as the grass on the housetops, and as corn blasted before it be grown up.

    27But I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy rage against me.
